Another problem with this suggestion is that it punishes all of us for the
misdeeds of a few. I predict that if such a rule becomes law, a sizable number
of non-offensive posters will jump ship, hastening the decline of the list. I
forget who made the point, but the idea of reducing the number of allowed posts
per user based on their offenses is a good one. If that's too admin-intensive,
then just setting a strict limit on abuse (three strikes and you're out) also
works. I don't much care for having posting privileges revoked or reduced when I
haven't done anything to deserve such...
